Diving in remote locations and inclement conditions (e.g. polar) can be both useful and enjoyable, yet few opportunities exist to gain the necessary experience. Pelagial SCUBA diving courses train participants in a wide range of skills to successfully undertake research and survey work in these conditions.

Our emphasis is on practical application and learning in a friendly environment, on and under the water.

Examples of the topics covered in our courses are:

Course units

• safety: discipline, equipment and procedures
